  • ‘I am Sorry’: Priyanka Chopra apologises after severe backlash

    ‘I am Sorry’: Priyanka Chopra apologises after severe backlash

    Transnational actor Priyanka Chopra has apologised for her participation in the CBS show The Activist in the wake of controversy and social media backlash. She said she has been “moved” by the criticism.

    The Quantico actor acknowledged that the show “got it wrong”.

    Earlier CBS had announced a change in The Activist’s format. It will be changed from a competition show to a one-time documentary.

    “I’m happy to know that in this new format, their stories will be the highlight, and I’m proud to collaborate with partners who have their ear to the ground and know when it’s time to hit pause and re-evaluate,” Priyanka said.

    The Activist was announced as involving six “inspiring activists” who will team up with three public figures, namely Usher, Priyanka, and Julianne Hough. The announcement was met with shock, ridicule, and in a few cases, outright disbelief. Many accused the makers of “performance activism” and trivialising the very concept of activism by turning it into cheap entertainment.

    Earlier, a joint statement from CBS and co-producer, non-profit Global Citizen read, “The Activist was designed to show a wide audience the passion, long hours, and ingenuity that activists put into changing the world, hopefully inspiring others to do the same. However, it has become apparent the format of the show as announced distracts from the vital work these incredible activists do in their communities every day. The push for global change is not a competition and requires a global effort.”

    Meanwhile, The White Tiger star has series Citadel and movie The Matrix 4 in her kitty.
